I think that by now you’d have gathered that I’m a complete and utter body scrub obsessive. I’m always mixing my own little concoctions and sharing them with you, and the latest body scrub I’ve whipped up is a skin smoothing mix of apricot kernel, peach kernel and watermelon seed oils with brown sugar.

The oils* in the scrub, which I’ve gotten from Island Naturals are rich in vitamins A and E, oleic, omega and linoleic acids so they’ll leave your skin very feeling soft and smooth. Unfortunately they don’t smell anything like watermelon, peach or apricot but I did add a couple of drops of sweet orange essential oil to give it that fruity fragrance.

YOU’LL NEED

1/2 cup of brown sugar

2 tablespoons of each oil

DIRECTIONS

Pour the sugar into a container (preferably one with a lid so you can store for repeated use)

Add the oil and then gently fold the oil into the sugar and mix until the oil’s evenly mixed into the sugar

And now you have your body scrub, let me know what you think when you’ve tried it!
